Fog over a lagoon, coupled with the following description by Reven: "Dusk, as day folds elegantly into night and the sky melds with the water. This is where I would come to read and discuss life's chapters with my ancestors, if I had the opportunity.” This peaceful scene was captured by Reven at the Stinson Lagoon in Stinson Beach, California, US.

Your lovely photo brings to mind a poem by poet, Sir John Betjeman, where he says, “Flashing fine, a sunset fire” when observing a sunset’s fading light on an old house with lead set glass windows. That said, I realise your photo is of a sunrise, not sunset.
